Molecular Orbital

Science / Chemistry / Molecular Orbital: A wavefunction that describes the behavior of an electron in a molecule. Molecular orbitals are usually spread across many atoms in the molecule, and they are often described as a combination of atomi MORE

Antibonding Orbital

Science / Chemistry / Antibonding Orbital: A molecular orbital that can be described as the result of destructive interference of atomic orbitals on bonded atoms. Antibonding orbitals have energies higher than the energies its constituent atom MORE

F Orbital

Science / Chemistry / F Orbital: An orbital with angular momentum quantum number ell = 2. The f orbitals generally have 3 nuclear nodes and rather complex shapes. MORE
